Frequently Asked Questions

A comprehensive plan is a state-required document designed to guide the future actions of local governments (counties and municipalities). It presents a vision for a community’s future with long range goals, objectives, and policies.

Per Florida Statutes, every seven (7) years cities make a determination if updating the plan is needed. There are numerous reasons why local governments update its Comprehensive Plan, such as:

• Changes in State Legislation
• Revisiting the community vision for future growth
• Considering trends and challenges affecting the community

The Comprehensive Plan sets policy for growth and is intended to paint a general vision of the community. The Future Land Use Map, adopted as part of the Plan, shows graphically where and how growth is intended to occur. The land development regulations and zoning map implement the Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map with detailed site development standards.

There are several ways to provide your input on the Comprehensive Plan. Please see the following:
